Mel Gibson in Hangover 2 — Must You Murder Someone to Get the Hollywood Ban?

Welcome to The Dishmaster! If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Please explain to me what Mel Gibson has to do to get banned from Hollywood for eternity. I believe in second chances just as much as the next guy, but there’s no evidence that Mel Gibson is contrite for any of his actions. Those “actions” include the much publicized tapes, along with his Jew-hating-Malibu-tirade. He’s also been on record insulting gay people. Gibson discussed some of these events during a ridiculous Diane Sawyer interview, where he clearly took no responsibility for his behavior. So this brings me to my original question. What does someone have to do to get banned from Hollywood for eternity? I’m guessing murder, but I’m sure someone out there can think of an exception to even that. Why employ this guy in Hangover 2? Why give him a second chance? Is he sorry? Is he getting help? Or is he the same Jew-hating, wife-beating maniac that we’ve come to know and love.

I for one, LOVED The Hangover. Sad to say, because of Mel Gibson’s involvement in the sequel, I will not watch Hangover 2. Mel Gibson has had chances to improve his image and he hasn’t followed through.

I’m not sure if his appearance would make me boycott the film altogether,
but if it didn’t, you could call me the world’s largest hypocrite. I’m on
the fence, though.
